Coach Hernán Crespo will try, this Thursday, to secure his first victory against Chapecoense while leading São Paulo. So far, the coach has faced the team from Santa Catarina on two occasions, both in the 2021 season, and both matches ended in a 1-1 draw.

A Thorn in the Side

The first encounter took place on June 17, 2021, during the fourth round of the Brazilian Championship, at Morumbi. In that match, Rigoni opened the scoring for São Paulo, while Mike equalized for Chapecoense.

The second meeting was on October 3, 2021, during the 23rd round of the Brasileirão. Just like the first, the game ended in a 1-1 draw. Eder scored for the tricolor, and Kaio Nunes scored for the team from Santa Catarina.

Now, in the match scheduled for Thursday at 8 PM, Crespo seeks to overcome Chapecoense for the first time as São Paulo's coach.
